Overview
What are Professor Karl-Friedrich Boerne and public prosecutor Wilhelmine Klemm doing together on the dance floor? Inspector Frank Thiel can't help but smile. He, too, ended up in the dance sport community in Münster – albeit for professional reasons. A body found in the Wolbeck forest is that of the dancer Elmira Dumbrowa. Her former dance partners are shocked by the news that the young Moldovan has been murdered. Two of them are particularly affected: Marie lived with Elmira, Jonas was in love with the dancer. But actually there is no time to mourn. The formation is about to face an important competition that could catapult them into the top class of dance sport. Club president and star orthopaedist Dr. Winfried Steul and trainer Andreas Roth are putting a lot of pressure on the team – they would have liked to keep the news of Elmira's death under the dance floor, like so many others. Then a severed man's foot is found in the woods near the crime scene. Thiel and Boerne ask themselves: is this about a double murder?
About the show
Tatort is a long-running German/Austrian/Swiss crime television series set in various parts of these countries. The show is broadcast on the channels of ARD in Germany, ORF 2 in Austria, and SF1 in Switzerland. The first episode was broadcast on November 29, 1970. The opening sequence for the series has remained the same throughout the decades, which remains highly unusual for any such long-running TV series to date. Each of the regional TV channels that together form ARD, plus ORF and SF, produces its own episodes, starring its own police inspector, some of which, like the discontinued Schimanski, have become cultural icons. The show appears on DasErste and ORF 2 on Sundays at 8:15 p.m. and currently about 30 episodes are made per year. As of March 2013, 865 episodes in total have been produced. Tatort is currently being broadcast in the United States on the MHz Worldview channel under the name Scene of the Crime.
